Hi all, I rehomed my rankin dragon in January, he was badly dehydrated with no basking lamp, uvb light or food. He has came on so much since we have had him, eating lots and doing the toilet daily and very happy to be handled. I have a query though, he has a small wound/scab on his lower back and I understand he has his this for 1+ years when I asked his previous owner. Can I do or buy anything to help him? His face has also started shedding and I've noticed half his body is now bright and healthy looking but the other half grey? I am bathing him every few days in warm water. I am a total Newby but I couldn't see him suffer.

What a cute little guy ! Sounds like you're giving him a good home and he looks plump + relatively healthy. You can use raw unpasteurized honey on it which works like an antimicrobial. Cut out the baths except for once a week and just water offer orally by dripping it on his snout.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
